FUSION NUCLEAR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY: USING AND DEALING WITH FUSION REACTIONS • Producing significant fusion power in true steady state • Breeding the T fuel • Producing high-grade process heat from fusion • Making chambers and blankets that survive high plasma and neutron fluences • Measuring plasma properties in a high neutron environment • Demonstrating advanced plasma performance at DEMO-scale • Making electricity from the process heat RJF EPRI 2011
Roadmap Building Blocks Come in Two Types Major Integration Facilities • Nuclear (e.g., ITER, Demo, Fusion Nuclear Facility) • Best for integrated testing, validation, and demonstration. Supporting Research and Development Activities • Develop physics scenarios and engineering & technology elements individually or in subsets. • Less integrated, more modular, more flexible. • Range of sizes from small to > $1B. • Best for developing and down-selecting options for integration facilities.
